In my younger days i developed an interest in photography seeing my mother taking our pictures and covering family events, but did not get chance to click pictures. During college days learned dark room techniques reading books and attending distance learning courses etc. but count not invest much in equipment’s etc.

In 1995 after coming to Delhi for job, starting exploring Delhi / neighbouring places and thus the need / interest in photography was rekindled. In 1997 purchased a Canon Power Shot camera and after using the same for some time felt a need to buy a SLR. After reviewing many magazines online sites etc purchased a Vivitar V3000S Manual SLR and started photography more seriously.

With the advent of Digital Photography i also felt the need to explore the same and hence purchased a Sony W80 Camera in 2007 and later in 2009 purchased a Nikon D60 camera but photography was only happening when i visited a tourist places or taking photographs of kids / family members. So started to lookout for clubs and groups to explore more photographing opportunities. Got in touch with Delhi Photography Club in 2010 and then started going out for taking photographs on regular basis.

What is the role of new technology and medium in photography.

With the advancements in Imaging technologies taking photographs has become very easy and affordable to common people.

Social networking has also enabed common people sharing their photos easily

Anything specific that you want to share with people.

Creativity / composition are still the basic for any good photograph, technology can only help in capturing the same.

What gives you motivation to go out and click despite having busy schedule and on going conditions .

Photography gives an opportunity to unwind after a very busy work schedule and also meet friends with similar interest in-person which is becoming rare now a days
